Each country has a different cost of living, so a fair price for everybody means creating a different price for every country. Long before Purchasing Power Parity pricing became popular, The Simple Different Company took the lead by creating the FairDif index to calculate fair local prices for our apps and services.
Simple Different focuses on providing accessible web tools for users with limited computer literacy globally.
Emphasizing affordability and multilingual support, we developed BabelDif for app and website translation into 30 languages, prioritizing underrepresented ones, and FairDif, a pricing model based on each country's cost of living.
Simple Different's Charter for integrating AI emphasizes control at every step, and preserves user autonomy by introducing AI as an assistant, not a replacement.
We commit to continuous improvement, opt-in/opt-out choices for users, and strict data privacy. We also recognize the limitations of AI, and ask users to take ownership of their content.
SimDif launched on the web in 2010, and became the first website builder app for iOS and Android in 2012.
Domain buying app, YorName, launched in 2021, and the 100% free website maker, FreeSite, in February 2023.
Our apps have 4m downloads in 150 countries, with more coming in 2024.
